John Cross and I go back to 1992;  we basically started pastoring about the same time.  Johnny Hunt told me one day, “I’ve got a young pastor in Florida you need to meet.  You guys are a lot alike.”  It began a long friendship.  We’ve travelled a lot of roads together around the world.  John has been single 46 years; just recently got engaged to Dawn Pollock, who lost her husband and son in a plane crash last year.  He serves as the President of the Florida Baptist Convention and has pastored the South Biscayne Church since the early 90’s. It’s a neat story.  You can read it here.  John, we’re happy for you!
